AMITOR Privacy Statement

This Privacy Policy & Terms of Service discloses the privacy practices and Terms of Service for AMITOR including all mobile websites (collectively the “Site”) and applications (each an “Application”) associated therewith, provided by El Paso News LLC (“El Paso News,” “we” or “us”). For individuals in the EU using the Site or Application, El Paso News, located at PO BOX 536421, Orlando, FL, 32853, US, is considered to be the controller of your data. El Paso News operates several publications (“Sites”) each governed by this agreement.

This Privacy Policy and Terms of Service (“Policy”) govern our collection, use, and disclosure of information from and about you, including through your use of the Sites and Applications. Please read this document carefully so that you understand our privacy practices. By browsing the Site; installing, downloading, or using an Application; and/or providing your information to us in any other way, you understand that we will collect, use, and disclose your information in accordance with the terms of this Privacy Policy. Questions regarding privacy issues should be directed to us at the address above.

Types of Information We Collect

Categories of Personal Information We Collect

Throughout this Policy, we discuss in detail the specific pieces of personal information we collect from and about users. The California Consumer Protection Act (“CCPA”) requires us to provide you with the “categories” of personal information we collect. The categories we collect are: identifiers (such as name, address, email address, IP address, device identifiers, and login information); commercial information (such as subscription and delivery history); financial data (such as credit card information); internet or other network or device activity (such as browsing history or what content you access on our Sites or Applications); geolocation information (e.g., your city and state based on IP address or precise location information from your mobile device with your consent and consistent with your mobile device settings); professional or employment related data; potentially protected classifications (such as gender and age); physical characteristics or description (such as when you voluntarily submit a photo to our Site or Application); and other information that identifies or can be reasonably associated with you (such as information you make available in comments, self-updated information in our Application or through email).

We and our service providers may use the categories of personal information we collect from and about you consistent with the various business purposes and commercial we discuss throughout this Policy. Please see the relevant section(s) for more information.

Information You Provide to Us

We collect and store information that you voluntarily supply to us.

• When you register as a member on any of our sites or Applications, we collect information including your name, company, title, zip code, e-mail address, password, and information regarding newsletters and alerts you would like to receive.
• When you make a voluntary donation or purchase advertising, we will collect all information necessary to complete the transaction, including your name, credit card, and other related information.
• When you sign up for our electronic newsletters, we collect your e-mail address.
• When you respond to our surveys, we will collect all the information requested in the surveys, including any applicable contact information and demographic information such as your e-mail, first name, last name, location, place of employment, type of employment, industry, household income, race, age, and gender.

We also collect information at other points in our Sites and Application which state information is being collected.

You do not have a contractual obligation to provide us with your information, but if you do not, we may not be able to provide you with the services you have requested or you may be limited in your use of our services (For example, if you do not provide us with your e-mail address, we will not be able to send you newsletters).

Information Automatically Collected

We also may collect and store information that is generated automatically as you navigate through our Sites or Applications.

To make our Sites and Applications more useful to you, our servers (which may be hosted by a third-party service provider) may collect information from your computer or device, including but not limited to:

• The date and time of your visit and the web pages and content you view and links you click on while navigating within our Sites or Applications;
• Information about the type of content accessed via our Sites or Applications;
• The site you visited before and after visiting our Sites;
• Your Internet Protocol (IP) address (a numerical address assigned to your computer by your Internet service provider so that other computers connected to the Internet can communicate with you online) that can sometimes be used to derive your general geographic area;
• Search terms you enter using our Sites or Applications;
• Unique identifiers, including non-global mobile device identification numbers;
• Information about your computer device such as your device type, screen size, browser type, language and other settings, memory capacity, plug-ins, Internet domain, TCP configuration parameters, operating system, carrier code, time zone and the names, versions and package IDs of software installed on your device; and
• Information collected through cookies, pixel tags and other tracking technologies (see additional descriptions of these terms below).
• If you allow our Application to have access to your location information and you have enabled location services on your phone, we collect your precise location information.

Information Collected from Third Parties

We may also collect information about you through non-affiliated third parties, such as market research firms and public sources. Depending on the source, this information collected from third parties could include information such as demographic information and brand and media consumption information. We may combine information that we collect about you through the Sites and Applications with information that we obtain from such third parties.

Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies

To help make the Sites and Applications more responsive to the needs of users, we employ a standard software feature, called a “cookie,” to assign each user a unique, random number that resides on a user’s computer or device. The cookie itself does not personally identify the user; it merely identifies the computer or device with which the user accesses a Site or Application. Cookies help us track user trends and patterns. They also prevent you from having to re-enter your preferences on certain areas of a Site or Application where you have entered preference information before.

When we post videos, third parties may use local shared objects, known as flash cookies, to store your preferences for volume control or to personalize certain video features. Flash cookies are different from cookies because of the amount and type of data and how the data is stored.

We also may use web beacons (also known as “pixel tags”) to access cookies and to count users who visit our Sites, use our Applications, or open our HTML-formatted e-mail messages. Pixel tags are graphic images with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, which are used to track online movements of our users. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a user’s computer hard drive, pixel tags are embedded invisibly in web pages and e-mail messages. We may collect information about your interactions with our e-mail messages, such as the links you click on and whether you open or forward a message, the date and time of these interactions and the device you use to read our e-mails.

Analytics Services

We use third-party analytics services (“Analytics Services”), to help analyze how users use our Sites and Applications. The information generated by the cookies or other technologies about your use of our Sites and/or Applications (the “Analytics Information”) is transmitted to the Analytics Services. The Analytics Services use Analytics Information to compile reports on user activity. The Analytics Services may also transfer the Analytics Information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process Analytics Information on their behalf. Each Analytics Service’s ability to use and share Analytics Information is restricted by such Analytics Service’s terms of use and privacy policy. By using our Site or Application, you consent to the processing of data about you by Analytics Services in the manner and for the purposes set out above.

We also collect anonymized, cookie-based demographics data from third parties to analyze the composition of our audience.

Tailored Advertising

Our Site also makes use of various third-party cookie data collection and linking services. El Paso News and third-party vendors, including Google and others, may use first-party cookies (such as the Google Analytics cookies) and third-party cookies (such as the Google Ad Manager cookie) together to (i) inform, optimize, and serve ads based on your past visits to our website and (ii) report how your ad impressions, uses of ad services, and interactions with the foregoing are related to your visits to the Site. In addition, we may use Google Analytics data, including but not limited to, geographic, demographics, and interest reporting information to recognize and understand user preferences, make improvements, and for other business purposes.

We also may use third-party advertising companies to target and serve some of the advertisements that appear on our Sites and Applications, and these companies likewise may use their own cookies, web beacons and similar technologies to collect information about users of our Sites and Applications. These companies may use that information, to deliver advertisements on this Site, and possibly on other websites (if the third-party advertising company operates an advertising network), tailored to match the perceived interests of consumers. The collection and use of information by these companies is governed by the relevant third party’s privacy policy and is not covered by our privacy policy.

Notice Concerning Do Not Track

Do Not Track (“DNT”) is a privacy preference that users can set in certain web browsers. Although we are committed to providing you with meaningful choices about the information collected on our website for third party purposes, we do not currently recognize or respond to browser-initiated DNT signals.

Use of Information

We use the information we collect about you to:

• facilitate the creation of and secure your membership account;
• identify you as a user in our system;
• send you a welcome e-mail to verify ownership of the e-mail address provided when your account was created;
• perform market research to understand the interests and preferences of our existing users;
• provide enhancements and improvements to our advertisements, Sites and Applications;
• provide the products and services you request;
• create new products and services;
• improve the quality of your experience when you interact with our Sites and Applications, including customizing features to your interests and serve targeted advertisements to you;
• measure and analyze audience traffic, including tracking user interests, trends, and patterns;
• send you administrative e-mail notifications, such as security, or support and maintenance advisories;
• send newsletters, surveys, offers, and other promotional materials and for other marketing purposes;
• help recognize you as a previous visitor and save and remember your preferences and settings and deliver to you appropriate interest-based content;
• understand whether our users read e-mail messages and click on links within those messages;
• prevent potentially prohibited or illegal activities, comply with applicable law and enforce our Terms of Service; and
• for any other purposes disclosed to you at the time we collect your information or pursuant to your consent.

We may create aggregated or de-identified records based on information we collect about you (such as by removing your name).
We reserve the right to use such data for any purpose and disclose such data to third parties in our sole discretion. For instance, when you respond to a survey, we may use, disclose and/or publish the responses you provide to us. However, we will not publish or disclose your name in connection with your response without your prior consent.

Disclosure of Information

Note that whenever you voluntarily make your information available for viewing by third parties online – for example in comments, through e-mail or web logs, or in our Applications – that information can be seen, collected and used by others. We cannot control who reads your postings or what other users may do with the information that you voluntarily post, so it is very important that you do not put data such as private contact information which you do not want to make available to the public in your posts. Once you have posted information publicly, while you may still be able to edit and delete it on our Site or Application, you will not be able to edit or delete such information cached, collected, and stored elsewhere by others (e.g., search engines).

We may share your information with our vendors and other third-party service providers to:

• provide you with the services that we offer through our Sites and Applications;
• process your payments;
• conduct quality assurance testing;
• facilitate creation of accounts;
• provide technical support;
• and/or provide other services to our other publications and our Affiliates.

Our third-party service providers are obligated to only use the information for providing, maintaining, and improving the services on our behalf.

Telephone Numbers We Collect

Text messaging originator opt-in data and consent will not be shared with any third parties, provided that the foregoing does not apply to sharing:

(1) with vendors, consultants and other service providers who need access to such information to carry out work on our behalf (and who will not use such information for their own purposes);
(2) if we believe disclosure is required by any applicable law, rule, or regulation or to comply with law enforcement or legal process.

Other Information

We may share some or all of your information with our parent company, subsidiaries, joint ventures, or other companies under a common control (“Affiliates”), in which case we will require our Affiliates to honor this Privacy Policy.

We may share some or all of your information in connection with or during negotiation of any merger, financing, acquisition or dissolution transaction or proceeding involving sale, transfer, divestiture, or disclosure of all or a portion of our business or assets. In the event of an insolvency, bankruptcy, or receivership, information may also be transferred as a business asset. If another company acquires our company, business, or assets, that company will possess the information collected by us and will assume the rights and obligations regarding your information as described in this Privacy Policy.

Some features of our Sites or Applications may enable you to post content to social networking services (“social networks”). If you choose to do this, we will provide information to such social networks in accordance with your elections. You acknowledge and agree that you are solely responsible for your use of those websites and that it is your responsibility to review the terms of use and privacy policy of the third party provider of such social networks. We will not be responsible or liable for: (i) the availability or accuracy of such social networks; (ii) the content, products or services on or availability of such social networks; or (iii) your use of any such social networks.

Regardless of any choices you make regarding your information (as described herein), we may disclose information if we believe in good faith that such disclosure is necessary (a) in connection with any legal investigation; (b) to comply with relevant laws or to respond to subpoenas or warrants served on El Paso News; (c) to protect or defend the rights or property of our Site or users of our Sites or Applications; and/or (d) to investigate or assist in preventing any violation or potential violation of the law, this Privacy Policy, or our Terms of Service.

Third-Party Payment Processing

For online payments, we use the payment services of third parties. We do not process, record, or maintain your credit card information.

Security

We have implemented administrative, technical, and physical security measures to protect against the loss, misuse, and/or alteration of your information. These safeguards vary based on the sensitivity of the information that we collect and store. However, we cannot and do not guarantee that these measures will prevent every unauthorized attempt to access, use, or disclose your information since despite our efforts, no Internet and/or other electronic transmissions can be completely secure.

Data Retention

We will hold your information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes set forth in this Privacy Policy or as long as we are legally required or permitted to do so. Information may persist in copies made for backup and business continuity purposes for additional time.

Transfers of Information

Our Sites and Applications are operated in the United States. If you are located outside the United States, please be advised that any information you provide through our Sites and Applications will be transferred to the United States, which may not have a similar standard of for data protection as the laws of your jurisdiction for processing, hosting, and storage by us or our service providers. Where you are accessing Services from a European Economic Area (“EE”) member state, we will take steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your information is treated securely in accordance with this privacy policy always and at least to the standards required by Applicable Law in our jurisdiction.

Third-Party Sites

Our Sites and Applications may include links to third party websites and applications whose privacy policies we do not control. Once you leave our Sites or Applications, any information you provide at another site or application will be governed by the privacy policy of the operator of the site you are visiting or application you are using. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any site or application that you use.

Children’s Privacy

The Sites and Applications are not directed to children under the age of thirteen and we do NOT knowingly collect personal information, as that term is defined in the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”) from children under the age of thirteen. If we discover that a child under 13 has submitted personal information to us, we will attempt to delete the information as soon as possible.

Your Choices and Rights

You may request deletion of your registration data by us, and we will use commercially reasonable efforts to honor your request, but please note that we may be required to keep such information and not delete it (or to keep this information for a certain time, in which case we will comply with your deletion request only after we have fulfilled such requirements). When we delete any information, it will be deleted from our active database, but may remain in our archives. We may also retain your information for fraud prevention or similar purposes.

Opting Out of Newsletters

If you have subscribed to one of our e-mail newsletters, you will always have the opportunity to unsubscribe from future mailings by following the unsubscribe instructions provided in the e-mail you receive from us.

Cookie Choices

If you decide at any time that you no longer wish to accept cookies for any of the purposes described above, then you can instruct your browser or mobile device, by changing its settings, to stop accepting cookies or to prompt you before accepting a cookie from the websites and/or applications. If you do not accept cookies, however, you may not be able to use all portions of, or all functionalities of, the Sites or Applications, as applicable.
